PhotoMesa Image Browser

Project
description:

PhotoMesa is a zoomable image browser. It allows the user to view
multiple directories of images in a zoomable environment, and uses a set of
simple navigation mechanisms to move through the space of images. It
also supports grouping of images by metadata available from the file system.
It requires only a set of images on disk, and does not require the user to add
any metadata, or manipulate the images at all before browsing, thus making it
easy to get started with existing images.

PhotoMesa goes further by also adding rich support for annotation and search.
Combined with an interface that lets you concentrate on images, not the interface,
you can easily manage thousands of photos.

PhotoMesa introduces a new layout algorithms - Quantum Treemaps
to layout the images on the screen, using space efficiently while
showing the groups the images are in.
